Spoiler Alert by Olivia Dade
4.0

3.5 stars. I liked the characters in this book, and the whole premise! But as a fat person myself, a lot of the writing seemed more like a PSA or lecture than a romance novel. Obviously there is a place for that, even (maybe especially) in romance novels, but there was just too much of it for me.

But I did appreciate April’s confidence, her job, her hobbies, and her ability to set and enforce boundaries. A great female lead.

I also enjoyed the spice (it was pretty hot! Maybe 3.5 out of 5 peppers on the spice scale.)

A fun book overall, and now I’m ready for the sequel!
